If you ask me sampling is the reason Hip Hop is so boring nowadays , its been overdone

@Your mother’s “friend, In some cases. Yvonne Fair’s let your down and Ronald Isley anything should be left alone for a while(overdone, after the Bigs, Jay and RZA’s murdered them). However, I do appreciate a good flip (Big KRIT, Kayne, ALC, No ID, etc), not a lazy loop(Every fakeass Producer that just loops a classic). I love Bill Withers, Stevie, O’Jays, Eddie kendricks, Marvin, etc because of breaks and the old musicans get paid(sometimes)…..That was quick

@Your mother’s friend, sampling was a lot more prevalent back in the 80s and 90s before people could download software and use synthesized sounds sot hat don’t make a lot of sense. Agree that hip hop is more boring but for the exact opposite reason. Cliched synthesized beats, cliched content (rise to fame, girls, i’m the shit etc), and watered down versions of rappers that are already out keep being put on (i.e. Big Sean, Fred the Godson,etc)…I’m still waiting on a song like Ghostface’s “All that I got is You” or 2Pac “Dear Mama” to come out and get radio spins but it won’t happen.
